How Analyze was Used
“Hyperintense and hypointense areas of cerebromalacea due to old cortical/subcortical infarcts or lacunes were masked out from the total lesion by thresholding the FLAIR sequences using a region-growing algorithm from Analyze 10.0 (https://analyzedirect.com/Analyze/) with manual editing.”
